Resource Vaccine Impact Modelling Consortium (VIMC)
Purpose Aims to deliver a more sustainable, efficient and transparent approach to generating disease burden and vaccine impact estimates.
Content The Consortium aims to deliver a more sustainable, efficient, and transparent approach to generating disease burden and vaccine impact estimates. It works on aggregating the estimates across a portfolio of 12 vaccine-preventable diseases and further advancing the research agenda in the field of vaccine impact modelling. Wide range of publications presenting various models. For example, models on mortality reduction benefits, effect and cost-effectiveness, health impact and economic value, etc.
Use Does not require user input. Collection of various publications, the user needs to review the publications.
Contraints/Limitations The publications and models might not be relevant to the specific context setting, but they still provide a strong background reading material for building a stronger case.
Example criteria this resource could address •Example publications include Estimates of the global burden of Japanese encephalitis and the impact of vaccination from 2000-2015 (Quan et al, 2020)
•Comparative evaluation of the potential impact of rotavirus versus HPV vaccination in GAVI-eligible countries: a preliminary analysis focused on the relative disease burden (Kim et al, 2011)
If available, notes on the development process The papers are published in a wide range of journals, and by a wide range of authors. Hence, the quality of the papers needs to be determined on case by case basis.
